Chapter 14 – “My face care routine!” (english/ română)

OMG. I sooo missed this.

Hello there, love. Hope you are having a great time as you should!

I was asked recently what are the products I use for my skin care routine and I figured- it is the best opportunity to write a new article. Buuuut, before I am going to reveal you all my “secrets” I just want to inform you that I am no expert and I can’t promise these products will fit your skin type too. So. Let’s get into it!

My skin is probably the most sensitive part of my body. To be more precise, I have a mixed skin type. I had to struggle with it a lot until I finally discovered what worked best for me. I spent a fortune searching for the best products and I am happy inform you that now, I am care free. While practicing dance I was constantly using waaay too much make up which did nothing but damage my skin. Now, I try to avoid using make up as much as I can and with the summer here, I recommend you do the same! So, who are those “bad boys” that literally saved my life? (Ok, I’m being too dramatic. They saved my skin.)

I “BIODERMA Cleanser”

This is one of my favorite cleansers. Not only does it does its job but also has a delicate smell. I used to clean my face with Ivatherm or La Roche Posay cleanser but I just didn’t like their smell. Don’t get me wrong, they were good but if I found something just as good with the benefit of a pleasant smell, why not?

NOTE: This product is both for face and body use.

II “La Roche Posay Thermal Spring Water”

Why thermal water? Why not a regular one? I mean, it’s just a fancy thing people use to play fancy. NO! IT. IS. NOT.

Thermal water does not damage your skin. I like to use it to wash my face, because the regular one dries my skin out. It is both refreshing and a good make up remover. Also, did you know that if you apply thermal water after doing your make up, it sets it out? I mean, how cool is that?

Love it. Use it. Buy it.

III “La Roche Posay Hydraphase Intense Riche”

This is my one and only true love. It was love at first use, really. Out of all moisturizer creams I tried, this is by far the best. I recommend it with all my heart. The other brands I used disappointed me. For instance: VICHY- irritated my skin; Ivatherm- did its job in the beginning then bailed on me; NIVEA- didn’t work; and other “natural” creams that were pretty much useless. * Almost all were bought after my dermatologist advice. *

IV “ La Roche Posay ultra light, 50+ SPF” face sun cream;

This sun cream it’s my protection shield when it comes to sun. If you don’t want to struggle anymore with sunburns, you’ve found your bestie! Apply it in the morning and you are good to go! Also I like that it doesn’t fell heavy on the skin at all and it is easily absorbed.

V “BIODERMA body cream”

Having trouble with your super mega hiper ultra sensitive skin? Well.. This is what you are looking for! It smells… interesting. But hey! At least you’ll have a stunning skin. ( If you use it regularly. I’ve been lazy lately.)

VI “La Roche Posay Physiological Cleansing Milk”

Need I have to say more? It is from my favorite brand. No irritation. No damage. Just right!

These are “THE” products. I couldn’t get through life without them and now, after all this time, I am confident to share them with you. I promise nothing as each skin is different but if it worked for me, there is a good chance it will work for you too! If you have any questions, do tell! I promise I will answer. https://www.facebook.com/pages/IuliAlexandra/379520005529594
